Hello Friends and Fans,

I have been extremely busy in the city of Berlin. A few months ago I began working with the dark wave band extraordinaire Deus Ex Lumina.  I have to say working with DEL has been amazing.  I had the pleasure of contributing ethereal backing vocals and a heavy/gothic guitar riff on their latest release (a cover of Marilyn Manson’s) “In the Valley of the Shadow of Death”.  The combination of his dark vocals, layers of synths and my ethereal backing vocals gave this track a haunting sound. For the release there is a fantastic video:

You can also listen to the track on Spotify: In the Valley of the Shadow of Death. 

I look forward to working on many more songs with Deus Ex Lumina. I hope you all have a fabulous kick off to a warm & wonderful summer!

Cheers!

TCT

I am happy to announce the release of my latest “studio” single:  Love Machine! For those who know me this is one of my original acoustic songs and here it is with my new electronic dance sound.  I had a lot of fun working with my dear friend Matthew Presidente of Vancouver and he provided synth pads as well as the backing vocals. During the 2020 “lockdown” we did a video of the song for his youtube World is Watching Series  and you can watch it here on YouTube. The song has been released on all streaming services and platforms: Click here for links to the various streaming services to have a listen.

You can check out a review by AnRFactory.com:
“Tara C Taylor sends a supreme shockwave through our shaking vertebrae and doesn’t stop entertaining with an electric display.”

Please stay safe and stay healthy.

Love,

Tara C Taylor

Happy New Year everyone!

I am happy to announce the release of my first tribute EP Under the Influence: A Tribute to 40 Years of Depeche Mode.  Not only was this project a tribute to my favourite band; this project inspired my new sound.  Gone is the sound of the bluesy acoustic rock singer/songwriter and here comes the new sound which is a mixture of post-punk/80’s new wave and electronic dance. To put another way: lots of electric guitars, keys, synths and drums! Click here for links to the various streaming services to have a listen.
